What is Super Progressive Web Apps?

SuperPWA is a simple, straightforward solution for any website owner who wants to enhance their users’ mobile experience; it is possible to convert your WordPress website into a Progressive Web App instantly.

After SuperPWA is installed and configured in WordPress using the SuperPWA plugin.

Anyone browsing the site on a supported mobile device will see the ‘Add To Home Screen’ notice and will be able to add the website brand icon on their home screen, just like a real mobile app.

Every time a page is visited it is cached locally on their device, and it will still be accessible offline.

Another cool feature of Super Progressive Web Apps is that Android users can receive push notifications, giving the experience of a native app. Unfortunately, this isn’t possible on iOS.

Where SuperPWA is not so effective is that it doesn’t adapt the look and feel of your website to your device, unlike native mobile apps.

Also, with a PWA you still won’t have a presence in the app stores.

Finally, if you use SuperPWA to convert your website into a progressive web app, it will still be visble in the search engines, like your website.

This is a benefit of PWAs, as regular mobile apps won’t show up in Google, but will show up in the App Stores.
